None. I honestly hate superheroes. Particularly the classic "patriotic" superheroes such as Superman and Captain America, since the very existence of such superheroes would run counter to the notions of freedom and justice that such superheroes inevitably claim to adhere to.
They're really more like evil despots, paying lip service to the public as a way of distracting people from the fact that they are continuing to gain power that they should not have. They subvert the rule of law, they are revered as gods, and humanity lives and dies according to their whims. They are the judge and jury wrapped into one. They arrest people and obtain evidence through illegal means while functioning as part of the police force. And when they suddenly do decide to take their places as the rulers of humanity, the people who GAVE them dominance over humanity somehow act surprised that the "heroes" would accept it.
Now, I'm not necessarily saying that absolute power corrupts absolutely, but it is at the very least attractive to those who are corrupt. The very existence of the Superhero depends upon the existence of a person who chooses to ACT as a God. Not as a man/woman, and NOT as a citizen. As a God. A mostly benevolent god perhaps, but that need not be the case. Whether or not that "god" continues to be benevolent depends entirely on whether or not being benevolent continues to satisfy that person's sense of power.
In reality, if Superman actually existed, people would secretly be talking about him not as the greatest thing to happen to humanity, but as the greatest threat humanity has ever faced. And if they aren't talking about him like that, they damn well should be, or else they deserve death and oppression and slavery when Superman finally decides to take his place as Grand Ruller of Earth.
